Now this is a subject that most will know of but few will delve into the world of . I know that the thought of experiencing Erectile Dysfunction is a sore subject to most male ego's but I needs to be brought out of the darkness into the light I say . I learned a month or so ago that my testerone levels were fine but as I told my id Dr " the soldier will shoot but he don't stand up and salute like he used to ". She then asked if I wanted a prescription for Viagra ( yes them well know little blue pills that the senior set is known for taking ) when they want to commit the horizontal mambo . Now that I have achieved my golden years ( yes I turned 50 this year but do I feel any differently than I did a decade ago No I do not I am after all the same man inside ). But the thought of having to go sexless is taking it's toll on my psyche ( yes I have a partner of nearly 24 years now Who knows my own plight and helps me deal with the psychological aspects of this malady when I go into a depression because of it) . But now that I know it's not my body that it's Actually the meds ( thanks to poz mag November '09 issue ( Satisfy yourself) I think I can live with the aspect of a sex less life ( for how ever many decades I have left that is) ).

It's all a sham. Politics is a big game, same as the media - and same as religion. The point is to distract & control. If we're looking at what they tell us is the "big issue", we're not looking at what they are doing. In time, there will be different causes and different minorities to pick-on. All in the name of keeping the system going, and the people distracted.
